The Siza School
Description
Álvaro Siza Vieira, one of the greatest living architects, designed the buildings of the new faculty of architecture for the University of Porto, where he studied and continues to teach. The buildings that conform to the shape and natural setting of the site demonstrate the architect's modernist ideals of functionality, geometric design, architectural solutions to structural problems, organization and movement, and the variation of light according to climate.
